What Others Say
Best, headset, ever.
Okay, I know what your thinking. This is another piece of crapper wear, with good headphones and a bad mic. Now what your thinking is WRONG! If you plan on playing any hl2 games (CS:S, halflife 2 dm, etc.) this is the mic for you! When you speak, its clear, its not raspy and it doesn't sound like your eating it, its perfect. There is absolutely no flaws to this, no hardware to install just plug in the mic and headphone jack and your set.

Microphone is pretty much useless.
The sound on the headphone is decent, especially considering the price.
However, I've been trying to use these with Ventrilo and other voice-chat programs and the microphone is barely audible.

No-one can understand what I am saying unless I really shout into the microphone and even then only occasionally.
I tried to see if Logitech's website had any hints but they don't list Logitech Extreme PC Gaming Headset (980233-0403) on their site. In fact, it looks like they're trying to pretend they never made this sorry excuse for a microphone headset.
If you want to listen only, these are probably fine. However, ... Read More
